    He is not totally wrong here. Does it make sense for perishable bananas to be flown in overnight to superstore?

    Slow floating grains to starving countries with big populations doesnt fall in that same category.

    if you want to make a dent in emissions, would you give up bananas or your car. Easy choice.

      Whoa. There it is.

      And this: "It’s why the eco-Marxist Trudeau Liberals seem impervious to arguments that the escalating carbon tax will destroy western Canadian grain and beef production — it’s not a bug. It’s a feature."

      And from the comments, this sickening truth:

      And here in Ontario, the farm organizations have “embraced” every bit of climate change nonsense. Stupid bastards – building the scaffold for their own hanging.

        Who's to say whether it makes sense?

        The starvation in most countries is political in cause, as much as environmental. I have a daughter that works in one of those countries. And from my observation and her accounting, it appears that the reason that people go hungry is because of catastrophic government failure.

        With the means and technology available to alleviate climate-based food failures, there is far less reason for populations to starve.

        I will concede on neither.

        Because it's not about the impossible task of trying to mitigate the changing climate.

          Should we be selling out and running before all this plays out?

            I dont know about that, but you better be prepared to farm in a totally different way than we have been and be tolerant financially of a lot more regulation and scrutiny.

            I am way ahead of Suzuki and crew. I could chem fallow my entire place forever and live off my stock dividends. Why be productive only to be punished.

                It’s easy look at chuck and think of everything he spouts on Agriville. This is the inspector that will come to your farms to harass You.

                It’s all laid out and farmers are nit going to win.


                We’re next after oil and they are coming faster than the zombie apocalypse

                It’s time to fight back before it’s to late.

                  The world population is getting older and fewer are reproducing fewer offspring. The next 30 years will see rapid declines in population in the likes of Japan, Korea, and all of Europe. Barring India and sub Saharan Africa there will be fewer and older mouths to feed. Old people don’t eat much nor contribute to gdp. When my kids are middle aged demand for food and gdp will plummet.

                    Yes. Govts and eco nuts worried about carbon emissions, cow farts, and chemical use but have no problem flying fruit in on a 747. A lot of the food products these folks think we should be eating has so many miles on them vs what we produce at home. Imagine for a minute when China pollutes itself out of existence and those crap oranges they grow or tilapia are inedible. What if there aren’t enough strong backs and weak minds left to tend the fruits and vegetables in the San Joaquin valley? Or almond production in the desert run out of water.
